"The World Trend Toward Nationalism" is the general topic of the meeting. Mrs. McKissick will accompany her husband to Philadelphia and also attend the meeting. tr. t. o. Aesthetic Stude Views Spring Pageant Opinion For several years debating circles have been trying to decide whether or not the populace is capable of determining who shall hold offices and other places of honor. In a mild way our student body has, it seems, come to the conclusion that we are not quite worthy of deciding just who shall hold some of these pedestals of much honor and so we decided to call upon outside friends to tell us, who had all the year to find the girl most queenly, the names of those girls most fitted for office. Is it that wc have lost our eye for beauty or is it that we wish to agree to surrender our principles of democratic elections? Now of course I realize that the purpose of the pageant was to take the May queen election out of politics, but why should we? Women are pleading for equal rights so let's give them to them. 1 he boys must take the raw side of the deal in their campaigns so in view of the fact that women sare today in governmental politics such elections should prove a good place to practice and try their abilities. We have The Gamecock for future journalists to practice in, the moot court for future lawyers to practice in, so let's give our future stateswomen a place in which to whet their ambitions. I realize too, that anyone may still be nominated but I ask you what chance has she against one chosen in the pageant with the prestige it established? Atid so I strongly advocate that we abolish this system or else employ a brain trust with Hitler as chairman of the committee, to appoint all officers while we twittle our thumbs and honor those chosen by persons who after all may be more capable of choosing leaders than we poor ignorant students who have come to college to learn which end is up.
